This is a fantastic chess game between Stockfish (3724) and LCZero (3686) from the TCEC Season 28 Superfinal, game 28. The opening is a Sicilian Najdorf where Stockfish sacrifices a pawn early and builds a powerful battery along the long light-squared diagonal. Play quickly sharpens with a central thrust of e5, followed by a highly committal queenside advance, all while calmly maneuvering around an invasive black knight on g4. In the imbalanced ending, Stockfish brilliantly demonstrates the dominance of multi-purpose knights!
